I\u2019ll teach those mischievous ani- mals to play about like that!\u2019<\/p>\n<p>And he fetched his broom and began to sweep up Bobs, Topsy, Cosy and Bimbo as fast as he could. They simply couldn\u2019t imag- ine what was happening! As soon as they found their legs they were swept right off them again and were sent round and round the lawn at top speed, first one and then another.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a2 Happy Days! \u2018What is it, what is it?\u2019 yelped Topsy. \u2018There\u2019s a thing that goes swish-swish-swish behind me all the time!\u2019 mewed Bimbo. The four animals fled as fast as their legs could take them away. They sat under the big lilac bush and licked themselves. \u2018Was it you in the leaves?\u2019 Bobs asked Topsy and Bimbo. \u2018Oh, what a fright you gave me! And then the gardener gave me a worse fright still! Look \u2014 he\u2019s sweeping the leaves up again \u2014 and I\u2019m sure the wind is getting up.<\/p>\n<p>What fun if it blows the leaves all over the lawn! Well \u2014 he won\u2019t be able to sweep the wind away!\u2019 And sure enough, the wind did come \u2014- and once more the leaves were flying all over the lawn. \u2018Serves you right!\u2019 barked Topsy to the poor gardener. But she was careful not to go too near him! She didn\u2019t want to be swept away again.<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 9 Bimbo Plays a Trick () nce Bimbo was naughty, and Mistress said he must go without his dinner. \u2018You have sharpened your claws on my best chairs, said Mistress. \u2018You have scratched the legs terribly. You know quite well you are not supposed to do that, you _ haughty kitten-cat!\u2019 Bimbo was sad when he didn\u2019t have any dinner. He thought he had better see if he could get some of Cosy\u2019s. But Cosy was ready for him and hissed and spat so fiercely that he didn\u2019t dare to do anything but lie down a little way off and watch Cosy eat up all her dinner, and then lick the drips off her whiskers.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Couldn\u2019t I clean your whiskers for you?\u2019 e Happy Days! said Bimbo. But Cosy said no. So Bimbo wan- dered off to see if Bobs had got any dinner to spare. Bobs was just eating his meal when Bimbo came up. \u2018Can I have a little, please?\u2019 asked Bimbo.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>All rights reserved; no part of this publication may be reproduced or transmitted by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying or otherwise, without the prior permission of the publisher Bimbo and Topsy was first published by Newnes in 1943 First Published by Bloomsbury Publishing Plc in 1997 38 Soho Square, London W1V 5DF Guid Bujtow Copyright \u00a9 Text Enid Blyton Limited 1943 Copyright \u00a9 Illustrations Guy Parker-Rees 1997 Copyright \u00a9 Cover illustration Clive Scruton 1997 The moral right of the author and illustrator has been asserted A CIP catalogue record of this book is available from the British Library ISBN 0 7475 3220 6 Printed in Great Britain by Clays Ltd, St Ives plc 10987654 Cover design by Mandy Sherliker CONT \u00ae OF B OO ND Contents The New Little Kitten A Playmate for Bimbo Topsy Makes a Mistake Bimbo Gets a Shock Topsy Wants a New Tail Bimbo Disappears Bimbo and the Trees Fun in the Garden Bimbo Plays a Trick The Little Red Jersey Fur Coats in Summer Bobs Melts Away A Very Peculiar Thing When the Chimney Smoked The Very Strange Cat The Moon in the Pail A Surprise for Bimbo Christmas at Last!<\/p>\n<p>A Happy Christmas! 15 v2 31 39 49 62 69 75 po2 89 96 103 1i2 119 128 135 142 149 A letter from Bimbo Hello, children! I do think it\u2019s fun to have a book of my own, don\u2019t you? I\u2019ve been looking through the pages, and I think I look very nice in the pictures.<\/p>\n<p>If you colour me with your crayons, don\u2019t forget to give me blue eyes, not green. I do a lot of naughty things in this book \u2014 but Mistress says she wouldn\u2019t part with me, even if I were twice as bad. So she must love me very much, mustn\u2019t she?<\/p>\n<p>I hope you will love me too, when you read my book. I am sharing it with Topsy, the puppy. She will write you a letter at the end.

He was a present for two little girls there, and how they squealed with joy to see him!<\/p>\n<p>\u2018He\u2019s not a bit like an ordinary cat!\u2019 said Gillian. \u2018He\u2019s creamy-white, and he\u2019s got a chocolate-brown nose, ears, feet and tail!\u2019 \u2018And do look at his eyes!\u2019 said Imogen. \u201cThey are bright blue \u2014 like the sea on a sum- mer\u2019s day.\u2019 3 So they were.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
